Depending on the serum or cream used together, your face may become oily the next day.
I often find that my face becomes oily when I apply a cream with a lot of oil content together.

It's not bad, but it doesn't seem to have a dramatic effect.
In that respect, the cost-effectiveness is not good.

I've been using it for about a month.
It's like water in texture, so it's easy to use and doesn't dry out.

C15 슈퍼 부스터 앰플

For those with sensitive or delicate skin, the first use may feel a bit stinging.

I carefully selected and purchased my first vitamin C ampoule, and it seems the high price is justified by the clear effects. When I apply it, my skin feels brighter and more radiant.

If you have sensitive skin, it's great to use as a layering product!! You can gradually increase the amount you apply, mixing it with your serum, lotion, or cream, until it doesn't feel irritating or reddish on your skin. You can also use it on its own.

The price... and the volume is small too ㅠㅠ Since it's a pure vitamin, there are some things I can't use it with! I have collagen, retinol, and niacinamide, so I use them separately, dividing them between day and night.

It was a bit irritating and reddish when I first used it! But after applying it consistently for a few days, it gradually got better!!! It has good absorption~!! It's slightly sticky! You can also do layering with it~!!

 I would recommend using it in the morning rather than at night.

 On days when my skin was sensitive, I couldn't use it daily as it would sting. The short shelf life also meant the ampoule color would darken visibly within a few months.

 In the morning, it was nice to use the toner after cleansing, as it felt refreshing and not too watery.

 Since I can trust the ingredients, I use niacinamide in the evening and retinol at night, along with vitamin C during the day, for comprehensive anti-aging care.
However, Polaris Choice Korea has been selling products with short expiration dates, which has significantly reduced my trust in the brand. I'm not the only one experiencing this. I recommend checking the expiration date as soon as you receive the product.

 While other products were quite impressive, the whitening effect was not as significant as I had expected. In fact, some cheaper products were even better. I'm not 100% sure about repurchasing, but it's been decent. The biggest advantage is that I can trust the ingredients.

 As a devoted fan, I completely trust Polaris Choice Retinol and Niacinamide 20%. I'm using it because the price is not excessively high.

You can mix it with a moisturizer and apply it to your entire face with just a small amount!

The amount is too little :( It runs out quickly after using it a few times

It has a nice glide and makes my skin feel plump and firm! Haha

🌩
Unsuitable Ingredients: Stearic Acid, Shea Butter, Panthenol, Ceramides, Hyaluronic Acid (except for masks - occasionally used for hydration)

It had slow absorption and caused skin irritation, so I discontinued using it.
This time, I'm planning to try a different product, Vita23.

☁️ Skin Type: Cheeks, T-zone with small pores and redness, overall uneven butterfly zone, some milia and inflammatory lesions in the oily-sensitive skin, occasional eczema around the eyes and philtrum

☀️
Suitable Ingredients: Centella, Houttuynia cordata, Niacinamide

The combination of Vitamin C, E, and Ferulic Acid is satisfactory in terms of ingredients.
It is highly concentrated, so there is a noticeable brightening effect, but it was disappointing as it caused breakouts.

It's tricky to use and turns yellow quickly, so you have to use it up fast.
It's expensive, so you should buy it when it's on sale.
It does cause some stinging, but you get used to it.

Although it's expensive, there doesn't seem to be a product with as much effect as this one.
I've been using other vitamin derivatives, but they've had no effect at all.
Old is gold, as they say - Pola is truly Pola.

For acne-prone skin, be sure to use this to eliminate acne. It can really damage your skin, so I recommend it only for healthy skin.

<My acne treatment and management>
1. Isotretinoin - 1 tablet 3-5 times a week (not all year round, mainly in summer, and occasionally when acne flares up, less than 5 tablets per month)
2. Stridex Baha Red - 2 times a week
3. Stiva A cream - 3 times a week, about the size of a cotton swab head
4. Cleanse twice a day - SRB enzyme cleanser, morning and evening (the 'twice a day' is the key point, the difference in oil and clogged pores buildup between once a day and twice a day is huge)
5. Fraxel - 2-5 times a year (for acne scars)
6. Always extract acne and get regular scalings
7. Reduce sugar and flour intake
(Even after doing all of the above, if you eat a lot of snacks and flour, it will be all for nothing)

Storage is a bit of a hassle, but for the sake of my skin, this is fine.
The price, well, if I just think about the money, it's a bit much. But there's also tocopherol or something like that included, and at this price, I don't think it's that expensive (SKSK or something similar is about the same, but my wallet definitely can't handle that).

This product does have an effect.
Three years ago, I didn't study at all and didn't know anything, but I applied a full bottle of this serum morning and evening, and my face became extremely white (I was just staying at home and not going out).
Three years ago, while receiving acne management at a dermatology clinic, I applied it without any problems. But last year, I got lazy and stopped going to the dermatology clinic, my acne came back, and my skin barrier was completely broken. When I applied this again, my skin was completely ruined.
After studying, I learned that for acne-prone skin, an unstable skin barrier, and unbalanced pH, vitamin C is one of the most irritating ingredients.
So I replaced the whitening with a lower dose of niacinamide, got treatment for my acne scars, and thoroughly studied skincare to normalize my skin. It took about a year, since my skin was so terrible.
The memory from three years ago was good, so I'm going to try it again. I'll start with a small amount to avoid making a mess on my skin, and apply it consistently.

The price is a bit expensive, but there were hardly any downsides! Highly recommended!!!!

The ingredients are good and the user experience is good too.
It contains CE, ferulic acid, bisabolol, and allantoin, so it's great great great great.

Use it twice a day, morning and evening. 3-4 drops each time. Otherwise, it'll be hard to finish it within 3 months.
I'm currently using it together with The Ordinary's antioxidant serum, and the results are amazing!!!! My skin looks so much brighter, and the bright tone lasts a long time!!! I'm close to oily combination skin, so my skin tends to get dull, but using this together, my face stays bright even after an all-nighter~~~~
I'll observe the effects of using The Ordinary alone after I finish this c15 serum.

The reason for the 4-star rating is that I didn't see much brightening effect.
But vitamin C has many benefits, and ascorbic acid is the most effective form with the most research, so even without significant brightening, I continue to use it consistently, trusting the ingredients.
Since ascorbic acid's various benefits have been proven through extensive research and testing over a long period, I stock up on it when the price burden is lower.

This is the best product when looking at the ingredients!
15% vc + 1% ve + 0.5% ferulic acid.
An unbeatable combination of antioxidants with ascorbic acid! Do you know of any other products that have this ingredient combination? It's really famous. 30ml for 180,000. At Pureherb, the biggest sale is 30%, so that's 20ml for 40,600. I stock up on it every time it's on sale.

The spreadability is good for an ascorbic acid product.
It's a bit less fluid. When I just apply it to my face, it absorbs right away and is a bit difficult to spread. But this situation has improved a lot over time. Is it because the stability of vc is not good, so the efficacy gradually decreases?ㅠㅠ
And ascorbic acid is usually quite sticky, but the c15 feels really nice. Just a slight tackiness. I'm close to oily combination skin, but I didn't feel any heaviness.
